LAW and Order " is the nom ID
plume of correspondent in recent
issue of the Bulletin, who seems to
be apprehensiye Of danger from
some source. and calls upon
the Foreign Consuls to LEND their
influence for the preservation of
peace; but he has failed to point out
the existence of any breach of the
peace either past. present or prospec-
tive. There probably has not been a
time in the past six years when peace
was better assured in this community
than it is to-day. unless indeed the
belIigerent he Alakai Hawaii
means to stir up an instruction in
favor of malcontents. soreheads and
disappointed obstrucuonists.
Three ont of every five voters in
the city have declared themselves sat
istied with the constitution and the
administration of affairs. The rest
of the voters, except the classes al
ready named, have no disposition to
appeal from the verdict of their fell
low citizens and are perfectly willing
to accept the situation. Where the
good offices of the Consuls are to
come in, in the present state of af-
fairs. 1t Is difficult to imagine. much
more so to point out. The Law and
Order" writer Is probably one of
those people that are wise overmuch.
and cannot be expected to coincide
with the programme Of letting well
enough alone.
But the writer Is not going to be
satisfied with the preservation Of
peace. and so the Consuls must lend
their influence for the PRONUNCIATION

WITH Government attending
strictly to business, and doing its
work capably and honestly-as may
be expected Of the present Ministry
there Will be no necessity for an ag-
gressive opposition in the Legisla
ture. So far as legitimate criticism
of policy and investigation of affairs
are concerned, every member elected
by the people should be expected to
be active and vigilant. Nothing less
will satisfy the constituencies or the
nation. At the same time the forma-
ton of cave " of ambitious or dis
appointed politicians in the House to
harass and obstruct the Government,
or to make a nuisance of pushing for
ward all sorts of hobbies, would be
resented by the people while probably
resulting in nothing but discontinue
TO the agents in such an enterprise.
No Ministry under a constitutional
system is to be regarded as a fixture
for any definite term. even if it does
not give very serious occasion for dis
satisfaction. A member Of the Cabinet
may die, or get tired of the burdens
Of his office, or evince a disposition
that will make harmonious relations
with his colleagues impossible. There
may be general incompatibility of
ideas and tempers developed among
the members; or the Cabinet as a
whole may grow INDECENT or careless
when affairs are running smoothly as
they fancy, only to be reused up
some day with the discovery that
matters have gone wrong and the
country Is calling upon them for ex-
plantations. All these things are posi-
biIltIes that must be kept in view.
But 70 hold that q new Ministry must
have Z combative opposition from the
outset IN q Legislature elected to
support 1t on the lines of a definite
policy, Is an absurd conclusion that
would not be advanced except by per
sons for whom the wish in that re-
spect had fathered the thought.
Touching present circumstances. so
far as the full results of the elections
are anticipated, we have a Ministry
installed upon well understood is
sues. followed by a Legislative As
sembly. elected on the very. same
grounds. From both these events.
there Is no installing the will and de-
sires OF the people. With what con
science. then. can any set Of men en-
deayor TO organize a hostile oppo-
siJiOn TO the Ministry? When the
members Of the Cabinet. individually
or collectively. show incompetence to
carry out the policy adopted by the
people at the polls. or prove unfaith-
lul 10 the trusts reposed in them. it
viii be time enough for honest men
to aid OF participate in any aggres-
5ive opposition to them. If ever a

TIM following, from recent issue
Of the Washington Republican, Is q
generous view Of Hawaiian new In

misrepresentation from here which
have had wide circulation in the

Of remaining settled upon the basis Of

\ PERIOD OF repose from political

A COMPLETE VICTORY.

WITH the exception of figures from
one or two districts, the election
returns from the whole Kingdom
have been received. They show one
of the most decisive electoral victo-
ries that have ever been achieved in
any country. 1t BODIES well for the
nation that the party standing
up for the reformation of govern
ment is the one to have carried
practically the whole Kingdom
The House of Mobiles is entirely
elected on the reform platform,
while it is doubtful if even corpo-
rails guard is returned to the House
of Representatives from among the
candidates who opposed the reform
movement in all the constituencies.
Three of the four members of the
late Gibson administration have been
defeated by overwhelming MAORI
ties, which is a laundering response
to their chiefs boasting in his exile,
in effect. that the party he led so long
would shortly return to rule The
more emphatic is the significance of
the defeat of these Ministers, from the
fact that two of them appealed to the
masses having universal suffrage as
candidates for the lower house; while
the third, aspiring to his former seat
IN the upper house, received such scant
support as to make ais candidacy
ridiculous, and that in an island Of
which he was only last year the very
much respected governor. One of
the members of the late Ministry,
Mr.. Aholo, made race prejudice the
basis of his campaign. appealing
with imprisoned utterances to the
natives to vote down the foreigners
he hates not wisely but too well. On
this account his defeat is a matter of
profound congratulation to the King
dom, Notwithstanding Mr.. Aholo's
admitted ability and knowledge of
parliamentary practice. Hawaii is
too old state. its foreign residents
are too closely identified with its
progress and prosperity, for the SUI
ferance of such narrow ideas as those
OF which Mr. Aholo is the leading
exponent. He was a member of the

bigoted q partisan as. to sacrifice what
he knew was right for mere party

entire vote than it did in Honolulu.
where nearly the whole foreign popu-
lation is concentrated. This shows
conclusively, that on Oahu, at least.
the voters have not divided on any
line of race or color, and that Haw
aiians have refused to be beguiled

by demagogues, that the reform cam

regard. Public policy and private
enterprise should, while the railroad
is building, be constantly directed to
the Importance of developing local
resources so that ships will come
here in large numbers to carry our
products to many markets, as well as
those that will call for orders, sup
plies, or repairs. The harbor should
be deepened and its entrance en-
larged, besides having its marine
railways capacity greatly increased.
Then the duty on all shipbuilding
materials should be taken off, and
Honolulu would have chance of
becoming one of the principal repair
ing ports in the Pacific.

IT Is hardly possible that anybody
viii deny the fact OF there having
been q building boom II Honolulu,
which still continues undated from
It's beginning before the great IRE.
This Is one Of the best gauges that
can be had OF general confidence IN
the future Of the country, no matter
how cIcUded may be the horizon in
both business and political matters.
When q country with such natural
resources gets the start that this
Kingdom has got, there Is no reason
Tor experimenting anything like q
general collapse. Those who hold
the leading Interests in Hawaii can
not afford 10 give up the struggle
with adverse circumstances, any more
than they would allow political ad-
TenturerS to destroy the country.

no doubt be something else TO take
the place Of our sugary prosperity If
II slips out. At all events. there Is
wrong. but the contrary. in

atty. Heart within and hope ahead
Is q good motto for 9 nation as for 3
man.
